Directions: Analyze the table. Answer the guide questions. Write the answers on a
manila paper for presentation.

Review:
What is absolute value?
 The ABSOLUTE VALUE of a number is the distance the number is from the zero
point on the number line. Absolute value is always positive.
 The absolute value of a positive number is the number itself.
Example:
Say: The absolute value of 4 is 4.
Write: │4│ = 4

 The absolute value of a negative number is its opposite.


Say: The absolute value of -4 is 4.
Write: │-4│ = 4
